He was shocked, because he'd done an awful lot of bible study...and no one ever mentioned that little bit to him.
I am not familiar with this... could someone fill me in?

How in the HELL are you supposed to test that thing for veracity? It's not like we have a freakin' DNA sample, now is it?
Actually, we do! In Bruges, Belgium, there's a Chapel of the Holy Blood that has a sample of Jesus' blood in a little chalice. Of course, they wouldn't actually show it to me even when I asked nicely (and even in their languages, unlike most rude tourists! ), but they were sure I would accept it on faith that the blood was there and authentic and that I would be happy to leave a small donation in gratitude for their allowing me into the holy blood's holy presence.

I shoved a dirty kleenex into the change jar and walked out
